I find the tender quality of this painting touching, and the combination of colors, striking. The warmth and love conveyed between the two girls moves me deeply, in part because these are not qualities I associate with Picasso's work.

It was so hard to choose between so many different things. What this painting means today and when it was painted is so mysteriously clear. the detail is unbelievable, especially with that date 1514. what a different time, what an insight.
